Rohit Shetty’s upcoming film Singham Again is already creating waves weeks before its Diwali release on November 1. The buzz around the movie has only grown with the announcement that the film has earned ₹200 crore through the sale of its non-theatrical rights. This makes Singham Again a financial success even before its official release.
80% of Budget Covered by Non-Theatrical Rights
The budget of Singham Again is estimated at around ₹250 crore, and by selling its non-theatrical rights, the makers have already recovered a large portion—around 80%—of their expenses. These non-theatrical rights include satellite, digital, and music rights.
Satellite rights were sold to a TV channel that will air the movie after its theatrical run, ensuring a handsome payout. Similarly, a popular OTT platform has secured the digital rights to stream Singham Again once it completes its initial eight weeks in theaters. Lastly, the movie’s music rights have been sold, adding to the ₹200 crore figure.
Why Such Massive Pre-Release Earnings?
One of the major reasons for this massive pre-release success is the star-studded cast of Singham Again. The film features some of Bollywood’s biggest names, including Ajay Devgan, Kareena Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Tiger Shroff, and Ranveer Singh. Akshay Kumar is also set to make a special appearance in the movie, further boosting its appeal.
The film is part of Rohit Shetty’s successful Singham franchise, which has always drawn huge crowds. Combining that with the sheer star power involved, Singham Again is expected to be a blockbuster hit.
Exciting Plot with a Mythological Twist
Along with the stellar cast, Singham Again promises to deliver an exciting storyline. According to reports, the plot will feature a modern-day twist on the Ramayana. Arjun Kapoor is said to play a character inspired by Ravana, adding a unique element to the action-packed film.
Given the growing interest in mythological themes in Indian cinema, this aspect of the story is likely to resonate with a large audience. The mix of high-octane action, powerful performances, and an engaging storyline could give Singham Again an edge at the box office.
Competing with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3
On November 1, Singham Again will go head-to-head with Kartik Aryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, which is also releasing on the same day. With both films generating considerable excitement, it will be interesting to see which one wins the Diwali box-office battle. While Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has its own fanbase, the anticipation surrounding Singham Again might make it a frontrunner.
As the release date approaches, fans are eagerly awaiting the film’s trailer, expected to drop by mid-October. Singham Again seems poised to continue the success of the franchise, breaking box-office records and thrilling audiences with its mix of action and mythological elements.
